Description

Industrial Design Project 2B is a semester-long capstone project providing students with the opportunity to develop a specific focus within design. Students work individually to devise and develop design ideas, build and test their design prototypes and evaluate performance. Industry and business projects as well as briefs from acclaimed design competitions are available to choose from. A final report will include the problem/opportunity identification, design specifications, idea generation, prototyping and evaluation, recommended manufacturing methods and an economic analysis. The final project may form the basis of an entry to an approved internationally recognised student design competition such as the Royal Society of Art Student Design Awards or the James Dyson Award (International). This final project aims to help students to land their first job.
